optional spoilers

It has come to my attention(regretfully)that after reviewing the recently released options & trim packages for the new Camaro,it looks as though a rear spoiler option will not be avaliable on the V6 LS or LT models.Having to upgrade to the RS package($2,000-$3,000 more) will get you a rear spoilerand no word of a front spoiler at all.I for one am very dissapointed that GM could not "allow"the option of a spoiler option for the LS & LT models.IMHO a spoiler is one of those options that makes any car more Sporty?It's a personal taste kinda thing.Did GM consult with Dodge on it's option packages?The SE Challenger also does not offer a rear spoiler,but it comes standard with a front spoiler...and if you want a rear spoiler,you can upgrade to the R/T package for $8,000 more...What?I sometimes wonder if these auto manufacturers do this on purpose,to push the consumer to spend the "extra $$$"to make their car look appealing to the owners contentmant,and then be stuck with a bunch of options they don't want,because they know most people would want this option.I hope GM changes the option packages before production next year.

I am sure will be able to buy the spoiler by itself for a lot less then the entire RS package. Or, I am sure you will have your choice of a plethora of spoilers from the aftermarket. From what I understand, they are "standing 10 deep" right now waiting to get to work on the car and offering parts for it.

It'll be interesting to see what they offer for spoilers. You can bet dollars to donuts that they will have them in time.

It is frustrating that a spoiler wouldn't be an "official" option for even the most base model Camaro. The reason for me saying "official" is that you will still be able to get it. I bought a Value Leader G6 in December that offers no official factory installed options. The dealer arranged for a spoiler to be added to the vehicle by a local shop before I took delivery. It cost more than the factory spoiler option would have on a higher model, but it was a lot cheaper than moving up to the next model level that didn't really offer much else that I cared for.
